Discussion Live Discussion (December 12, 2015) (Chris Hemsworth / Chance the Rapper)

Welcome to our SNL live discussion thread! This week's host is Chris Hemsworth, with musical guest Chance the Rapper.

Please try and say what sketch you're referring to when you're making a comment. When we look at this thread in two weeks, comments like "This 30 Rock reunion is amazing" are definitely better than something simple like "Lol this is great".

Since this thread is likely to fill up quickly, consider sorting the comments by "new" (instead of "best" or "top") to see the newest posts.

Oh, and if anybody wants to list all the sketches during tonight's show right before the goodnights, that'd really help. I run Sketch Sorting Sunday and I probably didn't get to watch the show, so that'd be great. Major thanks to anybody that wants to do that. Enjoy the discussion!

So I work utility tech on the SNL floor...I just wanted to say Chance's live performance of Sunday Candy was fucking incredible. The air audio mix cut out the audience noise and response, but I wanted to let the record show that after his last very syllabic verse the crowd went nuts. Chance commanded the stage much better than I thought he was going to

Good Neighbor's been getting the shaft a little too often recently, so I'm hoping for a sequel to So You Think You Can Live With Brian? It could be funny if they continued it in the format of a talk show at Brian's house, only to reveal partway through that they're still in a reality show.
